BREAST PUMPS

Do you know who owned the breast pump before you? If this is bought second hand off sites such as eBay or Gumtree, who knows how many owners your pump has had before they sold it on?

BREASTFEEDING AND EXERCISE

Breastfeeding and swimming training

So, you’ve got the all clear from your health care provider to resume exercise after baby. Can you do this and breastfeed? Sure! What about those who want to do a little more than walking to the local park with their bub, such as training for a race?

As an expectant mum, you had probably heard many (unsolicited) horror stories not only about birth, but how your friends, family, (or even strangers!) breastfed through gritted teeth and painful nipples. It may have even put you off thinking about breastfeeding before your baby was born. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and someone who has breastfed two babies, I can tell you: Breastfeeding shouldn’t hurt.
